Step into a world where nature and gastronomy meet in perfect harmony. Your day begins with a peaceful guided hike through a pristine forest, led by an expert truffle hunter who will share the secrets of finding the elusive and fragrant white truffle. As you walk the scenic 1.6 km route, you’ll learn to recognize the signs of this rare delicacy—and even harvest some yourself.

After the thrill of the hunt, we’ll head to a charming nearby estate for a behind-the-scenes look at mushroom cultivation. Explore the fascinating world of fungi with a tour of thriving mushroom crops, and see firsthand how these earthy treasures are grown and harvested. In the summer months, a refreshing swim in a local river offers a welcome pause, letting you cool off and soak in the tranquil surroundings.

Then, the true indulgence begins.

Under the guidance of a skilled local chef, you’ll roll up your sleeves and dive into a hands-on cooking session. Together, you’ll prepare and savor a gourmet meal centered around truffles and mushrooms, paired with carefully chosen regional wines to elevate every bite. The menu changes with the seasons, promising a new experience every time. Possible dishes include:

• Fluffy potato soufflé with white truffle
• Barley risotto with wild mushrooms and truffle
• Creamy scrambled eggs with truffle and optional prosciutto
• Juicy beef burgers enriched with mushrooms and truffle

Each dish is crafted to celebrate the flavors of the land, and every bite tells a story.

To end your day on a sweet note, enjoy a one-of-a-kind dessert: velvety yogurt drizzled with local honey and white truffle—an unforgettable finale to a truly immersive day.
